Lenders Helping Families in Need Stay in their Homes

The Better.com Challenge to do more for families with critically ill children

Join Better.com and give $10 for every loan closed to the MBA Opens Doors Foundation to help families with critically ill children stay in their homes.

The MBA Opens Doors Foundation is the industry’s bridge between the mortgage industry and the families that need our help. So this year, Better.com is committed to helping MBA Opens Doors do more for families with critically ill children. We invite you to join us!

Better.comis committed to giving $10 for every loan closed each month to the MBA Opens Doors Foundation and we want you to do that too. Here’s why:

Thousands of children in our communities fall ill each year and for families already living pay check to pay check, a child’s serious illness can devastate them financially. Their homes, once a place of refuge and security are suddenly threatened. But we can help.

In less than 10 years, the MBA Opens Doors Foundation has helped nearly 4,000 families from 49 states and provided more than $5 million dollars in mortgage and rental assistance specifically to families with critically ill children who are also in danger of losing their homes.

We challenge you to join us for a minimum of six months and donate $10 for every loan closed each month. Together we can match that $5 million with $5 million more for families who desperately need our help. We can help Opens Doors double their impact! And, because the Mortgage Bankers Association pays 100% of the Foundation's operational expenses, 100% of your monthly contribution goes directly to a family in need.

2. Sign the pledge and each month, MBA Opens Doors Foundation will send you the proper form and payment information for you to process a monthly check. Just send the form back to Deborah Dubois at ddubois@mba.org.

Need more information? Contact Deborah Dubois, President of MBA Opens Doors Foundation at ddubois@mba.org or by phone at 202-557-2909.

Please join us and help keep families with critically ill children in their homes.
